This MCACN Concours Gold and GTOAA Nationals Concours Gold-winning Starlight Black-on-black 1967 Pontiac GTO was treated to a concours nut-and-bolt restoration using NOS parts completed by American Muscle Cars in Kingston, Rhode Island. It retains its original laser-straight sheet metal and original matching-numbers drivetrain, which includes the 400/335 HP V-8 engine with a 4-barrel carburetor, 4-speed manual transmission and 3.55 Safe-T-Track differential. Other options include power disc brakes, bucket seats, the center console, Soft Ray-tinted glass and wire wheel covers, which are included but were never installed. Correct reproduction parts include a Gardner exhaust system and Firestone white-stripe tires. For 1967, Pontiac updated and refined the GTO with numerous powertrain and design upgrades that significantly improved its overall performance and accentuated its already aggressive appearance. Safety upgrades were implemented to comply with new Federal safety regulations and included a new collapsible steering column, dual-reservoir master cylinder and optional front disc brakes. The familiar Pontiac V-8 was also updated, including an overbore from 389 to 400 CI, and new freer-flowing cylinder heads with larger 2.11-inch intake and 1.77-inch exhaust valves were used. Pontiac was forced to abandon the familiar Tri-Power induction system, but engineers responded with an equally well-performing single 4-barrel induction system using a new cast-iron intake manifold that was topped with a Rochester Quadrajet carburetor. In order to keep insurance rates reasonable, Pontiac did not increase the GTO's horsepower rating, keeping the base 400 at 335 HP and the HO engine at a conservative 360 HP. The 1967 GTO's styling was also updated with a new wire-mesh grille, new lower side trim and new slotted tail lamps. The now-familiar 5-spoke Rally II wheel was also introduced. Featuring a build book and photos, PHS documents and the original owner's manual and warranty booklet, this GTO won a MCACN Concours Gold in 2013 and a GTOAA Nationals Concours Gold in 2014. It has traveled a mere 200 miles since the completion of its restoration.
